"Very easy to get an appointment on short notice when I had limited time to get a radon test done in the process of purchasing a home. Their price was also slightly lower than an estimate I'd received from another company, and the technician was more thorough about explaining the process than the other company I considered."

"I think this guy did a good job. My In-laws thought he was a little fussy, but I'd rather have every little thing noted. I'd rather be able to decide what's important. The report was pretty concise, and the summary was pretty good as well. I recommend him."

"First, the company switched to a different name and when we contacted them they said the deal shouldn't have been up but they would still honor it. We told them we wanted an estimate done and they did it but I had to call the sales person to ask when we would receive it because I was supposed to get it the same day and two days later I had still not received it. My wife and I changed our mind and we aren't going to have this done at this time due to money issues. The person I dealt with over the phone was very personable and got back to me quick, I just think that the sales person should have responded to me quicker."

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

There are steps you can take as a homeowner to remediate radon yourself. While a radon reduction professional can make the biggest impact in your home, you can make efforts to improve radon levels on your own by sealing cracks, increasing ventilation, and testing for radon regularly.

Radon is the number one non-smoking cause of lung cancer in the United States, but it can cause some other concerning side effects in the meantime. If you have a raspy voice, chest pains, trouble breathing, difficulty swallowing, or any of the above, don’t hesitate to perform radon testing and install a mitigation system as soon as possible.

Installation typically takes 1-2 days, depending on the system and property layout.

The soil beneath your house is most likely what’s causing an increased level of radon. This is because soil holds radioactivity for a long time and it’s also what most buildings are built on. Another common source of radon is water from a source that hasn’t been through periodic radon tests, such as well water. Over time, the radon from the soil can inhabit other parts of your house like the foundation or plumbing.

The fan that pulls the radon out of the air needs to run continuously, so you may see an increase in your electric bill once you install the mitigation system. Additionally, you may see an increase in your heating or cooling bills, as the fan can cause some loss of hot or cool air.
